centje: This appeared like a fiction to me...one horror movie. If this is true then i also think GEJ is truely weak. How can he be in power and still allowed this kind of jungle justice on his people go unpunished.



I guess you listened to timaya's first album,if you did ,timaya recounted the bayelsa incident in his song "DEM MAMA" so its not a fiction.


And if I may ask what do want GEJ to do,fight OBJ? That isn't an easy battle.
Politics / MASSACRE In NIGERIA by mikeuz(m): 4:11pm On Jan 15, 2013
ZARKI BIAM AND ODI, NIGERIA AND ITS LEADERSHIP.......

IT is a story that breaks the heart: A group of soldiers arrives in town, asks everybody to assemble in an open field for an address by its military commander, encircles the gathering, and then opens fire.

Rat-tat-tat, the bullets keep flying. Ten minutes after, the firing stops. No one is left standing except the soldiers.

The waves blow the clothes of the victims hither and thither -- blood-soaked scarves and head gears of aged women, caps of elderly men, and toys of kids.

You are welcome to Odi, Bayelsa State. That was on November 20, 1999, not in the 14th Century, not in a Hobbessian state. That was a part of Nigeria’s recent history that former President Olusegun Obasanjo is still very proud of. It is a crisis management policy that the Army General who has had the rare opportunity to lead Nigeria as both military and civilian ruler, commends to the current national leadership.

A gang of militants had killed 12 Policemen near the town. When he deployed soldiers to apparently teach the militants a lesson, President Obasanjo reportedly told them not to "waste" bullets. In other words, every shot fired must hit target. Every building in the town, except a bank, an Anglican church and a health centre, was razed to the ground. Till today, the perpetrators have not been apprehended. It is in doubt if any effort has ever been made in that regard.

A similar treatment was given to the people of Zaki Biam in Benue State by the same Federal Government under Obasanjo about two years later. During a protest over the siting of a local government headquarters, some criminals killed 19 soldiers who were deployed to keep the peace. From October 22 to 24, 2001, on the authority of Obasanjo, soldiers killed anything and everything in sight. About 100 residents and passersby were recorded dead.

For the then president was not the need to sift the wheat from the chaff, investigate and identify the perpetrators. He simply gave an order to wipe out the community. Like in Odi, there is no record of any arrest of the culprits. It was enough for the Obasanjo government that the blood of entire villages was spilled in revenge!

It is quite easy for people to forget their pains and anguish of yesterday when faced with new challenges today. That explains why the people of Israel, as recorded in the Bible, had no difficulty thoroughly abusing Moses and accusing him of a genocide plot against them.

They were thirsty but there was no water in sight. So, they demanded why Moses bothered to free them from slavery in Egypt, where they had had at least had regular supply of water. These were people who were recorded to have only a little earlier witnessed the parting of the red sea and the annihilation of King Pharaoh and his army!

The Biblical story easily comes to mind whenever I hear Nigerians complain about the “cluelessness” of the Goodluck Jonathan administration in tackling the Boko Haram menace and wishing that they had a “strong leader” like Obasanjo who would have put an end to “the nonsense.”

That line of argument has gone on for long and, apparently, the retired but not tired Army General Obasanjo enjoys the adulation. He boasted of it recently at a public lecture and openly insinuated that President Jonathan is weak in tackling the menace.

He said: “My fear is that when you have a sore and you don’t attend to it early enough, it festers and becomes very bad. Don’t leave a problem that can be bad unattended. I attended to a problem that I saw; I sent soldiers.

They were killed, 19 of them (were) decapitated. If I had allowed that to continue, I would not have the authority to send security anywhere again. I attended to it. If you say you do not want a strong leader, who can have all the characteristics of a leader, including the fear of God, then, you have a weak leader and the rest of the problem is yours.”

Let us agree, for a moment, that the massacre of the elderly and kids of Odi and Zaki Biam worked in forcibly putting an end to terrorism in both the Niger Delta and Benue State as he claims. Did Obasanjo apply the same high handedness to the Northern part of the country as he is publicly upbraiding President Jonathan for not doing?

The imposition of Sharia rule in many parts of the North occurred during the administration of Obasanjo. A cow thief, Mallam Buba Bello Jangebe was amputated while the advocate of strong arm tactics was in office. What was his reaction? If the imposition of Sharia is for religious purpose, it will endure but if it is a political action, it will die out!
That was what President Obasanjo told the nation and the world. It was a smart way to avoid confrontation with the masterminds of the Sharia rule whose main intent then was crystal clear: To provoke the Federal Government into making any comment or taking any action that would stir a national crisis.

Obasanjo read the action of the Sharia proponents wisely and spoke wisely. Today, many of those who took Sharia implementation from civil and family law to the realm of criminal law have been cited for stealing public funds, denying the people they would have led to war basic necessities. They luxuriate in wealth beyond imagination, stolen from the people. Some of them are standing trial for raiding public treasury, while Mallam Jangebe and other victims continue in poverty.

Obasanjo knew their plot and gingerly walked the minefield. Why does he want Jonathan to apply the Odi and Zaki Biam treatment to states that are under the yoke of Boko Haram, when the group claims to be motivated by religion? Jonathan should deploy soldiers to communities in, say Bauchi or Borno State, gather the innocent old and young, and gun them down? Just like that? Would that not be an open invitation to Al Qaeda to permanently make Nigeria ungovernable?

As an elder, Obasanjo is expected to counsel the administration on the time-tested dictum that you exercise discretion in killing a fly that perches on your male member. That the people of Odi and Zaki Biam have not mustered enough political will and clout to bring those who masterminded the genocide on them in a world war crimes tribunal is no reason for the perpetrators to gloat.

Yes, the killing of Policemen by criminal activists in Odi and Zaki Biam should not have gone unpunished. But the duty of the state is to apprehend the killers, duly prosecute them and apply the maximum weight of law on them. A knee-jerk approach of rounding up everybody on sight and dispensing instant, jungle justice on them is not something to be proud of. It was, indeed, one of the saddest chapters of Nigeria’s recent history.

curtain: Dementia, wicked, cursed and rotten students. The mental deceases of som is worse than leper, practicin it was not enuf for them it has gotten to the extent of coercing innocent minds into their dastardly act, they are heavily due for the wrath of men and God. The NUC shud suspend such universities to avoid producing rotten eggs into the society bearing graduate certificates, beta still, such universities shud b automatically converted into a penitentiary or prison by the federal govt, cause most reports about Esut is obnoxious and absurd. The state govt is wasting funds breeding criminals, thugs and prostitutes which in turn curupts public morality at the long run. Of wat diff is it to take ur child to a safari or zoo than with taking ur child to Esut? The end result is the same, ur child will definitely go wild. University is a reflection of a society both immediate and remote, if u want to know any tin about a particular society go to its closest university.


Are you thinking straight?because some eggs are bad in a crate means you should throw the crates away,the school has level minded and brillant students also. Don't judge them all,because all schools in Nigeria have their short comings,I can swear you will find a student that can't read and write in all the government owned schools in nigeria and no be today cult matter dey ground.

val_dee: From the three people expelled from National Youth service onto this one; Now I know there is a concerted effort to tarnish the image of that school.



I smell foul play here.first three students were expelled from one particular institution while they Are hundreds of them out there from other university,but none were caught,if u enter the camp,you don't need to look far before u fetch so many half baked graduates that can't even read or write.

Now an incident that occurred last year,that didn't even see the light of day,because it was based on lie surfaced today.read the article well it occurred on july 2011 and the story was a husk,because no video was found. The truth was that an angry soldier whose daughter was molested by a student cultist went on rampage and started arresting all the cultist,as well as innocent students. Though most of the innocent were released after much bashing.
Let's see where this will end as the conspiracy against the ESUT continues.we are watching

I actually can't write everything have done τ̲̅ȍ show her I really love her,believe when I say have tried my best•out of ignorance can you please suggest anyway I can show her,how I feel,maybe I can learn something new
Romance / Re: She Need Time And Space by mikeuz(m): 12:10pm On Oct 06, 2012
MRbrownJAY: YOUR problem is that you seem to speak a lot but show NOTHING. Do you actually think that you can reassure someone just by saying the right words? Come on bro!
Here is a clue: if you claim that you love her AND that you are really serious about being with HER, them why don't you bring her to your parents and introduce her as YOUR GIRLFRIEND? That action will certainly go a long way.

HER problem is that it seems she is ready to let go, but don't want to do so until she finds someone worthy (aka better than you) If she is really confused about your r/ship then there is nothing that could be solved by having a break. Beware as it will only take the right guy to make her see that you ain't worthy, as the long distance blues has already set in.



Have actually tried τ̲̅ȍ do that,but circumstances hasn't yet permitted that,but she has spoken several times τ̲̅ȍ my parents on fone,we have actually planned τ̲̅ȍ see my parents nxt two weeks

I asked her τ̲̅ȍ tell me if she wants τ̲̅ȍ brkup instead of finding a polite way τ̲̅ȍ say it, bt she said if she wants τ̲̅ȍ brkup, she will tell ♍ƺ directly and won't hide it•
Romance / She Need Time And Space by mikeuz(m): 10:27am On Oct 06, 2012
She said she needs time and space to sort herself out and figure out what is wrong.

She came to this decision because she claims she couldn't trust me
I started dating this love of my hrt one month after she broke up with her ex who broke her heart,he was using the excuse of distance τ̲̅ȍ cheat on her• We have dated for 9 months now and I truely loved her,not for once have I cheated on her. Issue of distance came up when I had τ̲̅ȍ relocate because of work reasons, and she changed• I finally made her tell ♍ƺ why she changed and her response what's that SHE COULDN'T TRUST ME because of distance, secondly because I have a way with words and know how τ̲̅ȍ get other girls easily,this is because she sees different girls around me and they really like me,thirdly because I told her of a girl τ̲̣̣̥h̶̲̥̅̊@̤̥̣̈̊̇†̥̥ is really into ♍ƺ and my parents actually prefer her for me (I only told her this becos I intended τ̲̅ȍ reassure her that my love for her is for real despite what anybody may prefer for me), but little did I know this my openness wuld cum back and hurt me.I also think her previous relationship experience is hunting her.


So nairalanders what do you think she means when she says she wants time and space τ̲̅ȍ figure herself out?
And she was also quick τ̲̅ȍ add that she is still my girl friend but just needs time.
